The Nicholas Chronicle is a newspaper serving Summersville, West Virginia, and surrounding Nicholas County.[1] Published weekly, it has a 2016 circulation of 7,481 and is owned by Nicholas Co. Publishing Company, Inc.[2] It is currently the largest weekly newspaper in the state.[2]

Founded in 1880 as a Democratic weekly[3] by Howard Templeton,[4] it was acquired in 1891 by D.A. and John Grose.[5][4] John had learned the trade as a printer at the paper.[5] By 1919, it was the only newspaper in the town, and was edited by A. L. Stewart.[5] Stewart owned and edited it until 1921, introducing a number of improvements including motorized printing before moving on to the Braxton Democrat.[4]

In 1956, the paper was sold to two attorneys, Joseph Berzito and Roland Clapperton.[4]

From 1991 to 2002 it was edited by Charles W. Yeager, who increased readership from 4,500 to more than 10,000, making it the largest weekly in the state.[6]

It is currently edited by Raymond W. Corbin.
